"If a dog jumps into your lap, it is because he is fond of you; but if a cat does the same thing, it is because your lap is warmer." She loves to sit on the sill of the upstairs window and watch the birds as they fly in and out of the trees.
She loves spring as much as we do... ~Nancy ~ 3.8.2016 "As as farmer, you learn quick: You don't get anything that you don't work hard for." "You and your barns," said Tom.
He's pretty patient about pulling over so I can get my photo... ~Nancy ~ 3..6.2016 We're spending a lot of time on country roads looking for our homestead.

How about "old music to listen to"? I am truly blessed to have the time to drive aimlessly through the country. It's too cold, still, to have the windows down, or the top back.

We monitored a Twitter chat with Amy's middle school in Plymouth, Massachusetts, #psepmsread and Skyped with other classrooms across the United States sharing students' favorite Dr. Seuss books. I honestly don't know who had more fun! The teachers or their students? ~Nancy ~ 3.2.2016 |
